Going to be down in Lethbridge over the weekend and I'm wondering if anyone's had any luck on the fly with Goldeye? Any patterns working better than others? Trying to catch as many fish on my new 4 wt as possible!!
Cheers!

Well I am far from an expert but foam dries in bigger sizes (4-12) have been productive in the evenings. I have heard unnatural colors work best, but I get them on big brown hoppers. Best of luck and post some pics if you get any.

anything that is durable and floats high will get you some goldeyes. I will also be chucking for them on the oldman around Taber this weekend.

Thanks folks!
Unfortunately I didn't get a change to get within 100m of the shore, except driving over the bridge that is.
Hopefully will be down again in a couple of weeks to give an honest try!
Cheers!
